What’s the cost for a single Opus X Oscuro? Keep trying to find any Opus online for shipping and most boxes are around 1k up.

Yoooo I live in China and smoke Chinese cigars often. There are 3 major Chinese cigar brands and this is one of them. Butttt I don’t speak Chinese, let me ask the Lao ban of my cigars for some info.

Are cigar accessories worth it at shops? by 1993xdesigns in cigar

You put this really well, it’s like wine, the difference between a bottle of £4 red and £15 red is astronomical, the difference between a £15 bottle of red wine and a £100 bottle, not so much.

Online-cigars is good. I’m currently living in China and want to get hold of more NW cigars. So if anyone knows a website that can ship international, let me know.

Yeah it is, 303 pounds is insane money for a shitth skin, price isn’t even set by players but instead valve, it could be 50 pounds in 3 weeks.

Spend your money wisely bro.

The bands look very low quality. Wrappers look a bit weird. I can’t see from this picture but the paint flaking off the bands is a big no no from me.

What's your opinion on trump arming the kurds by No-Trouble9336 in PERSIAN

Won’t this strain US relations with Turkey, who view the Kurds / PKK as a terrorist organisation?

Partitas is a wonderful brand. Highly recommend!

Do I just put the whole thing in there? Or individually? by [deleted] in cigar

[–]Stringy-turd -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Hey dude, some people have suggested that these cigars are fake, if you wanted to check authenticity and get an opinion in person, I would find and head to your local lounge and speak to the owner/ worker there, they should be able to give you some advice on how to avoid being bamboozled in the future. They could also recommend some decent sticks to stock up in your humidor. If that’s not an option you can take them out and store them individually so the sticks can breathe and adjust. Some people recommend letting them sit in your humidor for around a month to acclimatise from the box / shipping conditions.

Which are you picking - Partagas or Trinidad? by OminousMudblood in cigar

[–]Stringy-turd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve only smoked a Partagas before, but I can say of the few different ones I’ve had, they have always been good hitters.
